Hosting a variety of events, The Township has been home to many entertainers, performers, and local groups from graduations, dance recitals, and inaugural galas. Columbia loves it’s live entertainment, so Township Auditorium events sell out often.

From John Philip Sousa’s Orchestra on opening day to Duke Ellington, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Leonard Bernstein, and the rock- and- roll icon of his day, Elvis Presley, The Township represents a priceless link with our city’s past and the history of its cultural development.

Hailed and exalted for its architecture, acoustics, and sightlines when it was first built, the Township has survived world wars, economic boons, recessions, social turmoil, and the renaissance of Columbia’s Downtown City Center.
